Back at the Rain Forest with 94 brave explorers. Today, we learned just how much God loves us in the Parable of the Lost Sheep. The Shepherd - Jesus - left the 99 sheep to find the one who lost its way.

In crafts, everyone got to make their own sheep: cotton ball sheep masks in K Crafts and fuzzy sheep magnets in 1st - 6th - reminders that we, too, are like sheep.

We even ate sheep crackers - BAAAA!

While we made lots of white crafts, we wore tons of GREEN today. The color was all over the place.

Don't forget - CRAZY HAIR DAY Wednesday! Remember - Mr. Daniel!

The church has often used sports as an outreach tool. Paul Powell was a teenager growing up in Port Arthur, Texas, when he learned that First Baptist Church had a softball team. He began attending and playing, and soon his involvement led to his salvation. He said, “I was willing to take religion to get the recreation. But I found something better than both—I found redemption through Jesus Christ.”

VBS Son-Quest Rain Forest is finally here! We're off to a great start with 98 kids and lots of workers the first day. We learned about the Parable of the 4 Soils in Bible, and built on that theme in crafts by making a sod baby with GREEN HAIR.

Speaking of GREEN, tomorrow is GREEN DAY! Wear your green stuff. Mr. Daniel is all mixed up. He forgot that WED. is CRAZY HAIR DAY.

Snacks were crazy good - DIRT PUDDING with GUMMY WORMS, chips and kool-aid. Yum! Wonder what we're having tomorrow?

We have had a great day!! May post more pics tonight :)
